Chapter 365, Book of Chaos
"...My lady, you actually came here." Ryan shrugged helplessly, and at the same time was a little unhappy. The fairy in the lake interfered deeply with his private life, but the female knight didn't object, and he couldn't say anything.
"I came here carefully. I thought you would be done soon, but you can take a bath for more than an hour." The fairy in the lake had a strange tone, and she gave Ryan a look: "You don't know that I'm waiting outside Is it? If you hadn't transferred the divine power for me, I would have spent a lot of divine power within ten minutes of my arrival."
"I didn't pay attention." Ryan put Suria on the bed, wrapped the female knight in a bathrobe, and hugged her lap: "What's the matter? My lady?"
The goddess changed her sitting position somewhat uncomfortably. A naked jade foot was exposed under the long skirt. Pink nail polish was painted on her crystal pink feet, and petals of irises were stuck to them. While the female knight was wearing a bathrobe and her clothes were Not neatly, the fairy in the lake stared closely at the position of Surya's lower abdomen, as if she wanted to see something.
There is also a strange heart-shaped beautiful pattern on the female knight's smooth, smooth and jade-like belly. The golden silk thread surrounds a sharp sword in the middle and a complicated "I" pattern. This I pattern and The sword is half golden and silver, and is protected by a silver ribbon in the middle. The silver wings glow around the sword. At this time, the wings of the wings are still closed, and there is only a slight sign of opening.
Sure enough, what he gave to Suria was different than what he gave to other women. The fairy in the lake thought about Ryan's engraving.
The origin of the champion chosen by the fairy in the lake is extremely mysterious. He is an outsider, a "god" who has not grown up, but a human being with pure blood without any blemishes.
In addition to his powerful blood talent, the only one in the world who can directly use subspace to cast spells, Ryan is not only immune to corruption, but also able to dispel corruption.
What interested the fairies in the lake the most was the mysterious engravings on the stomachs of Morgiana, Olika, and the witch Veronica. This kind of engraving goes deep into the soul of the target and helps the other party resist various threats of corruption. And it will gradually mature with more contact until the wings are fully opened.
The spirit pattern engraving on Suria's lower abdomen is different from the ones she saw before. What does this mean? Is it Lane's special love, or is it the daughter-in-law certification from Lane's father? Or is it a special gift of the power of father and son?
Even the vast amount of knowledge possessed by the fairy in the lake cannot know this special situation, she can only guess.
"Ma'am?" Ryan noticed the gaze of the fairy in the lake. He wrapped Suria tightly in a bathrobe and said impolitely, "What are you looking at? This is my wife, not yours, so I won't show it to you." .”
"Ryan ~ don't do this." Suria's face was flushed, but unfortunately the female knight is really weak now. Apart from leaning on her husband's arms, she could only softly say to the fairy in the lake: "Ma'am, just tell me if you have anything to do. Lane will obey your will."
"Lian, my champion, you'd better sign an alliance with Emperor Karl Franz when you come to the empire this time." The fairy in the lake could only brush some thoughts out of her head, and she reached out and caressed Suria's delicate tenderness. With a smile on his face, he said, "This will be beneficial to our future plans."
"Aren't Britannia and the Empire an alliance, and they help each other?" Ryan was very surprised.
"That's Britannia, not you." The fairy in the lake shook her head, her finger was on the center of Suria's eyebrows, and divine power surged from her pale fingertips, and Suria began to recover from her sleepiness. , the pious female knight immediately listened carefully to the instructions of the fairy of the lake, and the fairy of the lake said: "What I want is that you form an alliance with Emperor Karl Franz, preferably a military alliance."
"Why?" Ryan asked.
A covenant of mutual help is called a "defensive alliance". In addition to guaranteeing that the two parties can fight together, this covenant pays attention to the fact that once one party is declared war, both sides will fight at the same time.
A higher level than a defensive alliance is called a "military alliance".
The simple summary of this kind of covenant is "advance and retreat together". Once this kind of contract is signed, when the empire declares war on any force, Ryan will also declare war on that force.
The Empire and the Dwarves are such a pact.
"It's you, it's the covenant between you and Karl Franz, not the empire and Britannia!" Seeing that Ryan didn't understand, the fairy in the lake repeated it immediately.
Now Ryan understood: "You mean, my earldom and Emperor Karl's Rickland?"
"Exactly, my prophecy shows that in the next few to ten years, Brittania will not face a major invasion, but the empire will not." The fairy in the lake said in a deep voice: "The most powerful force in the old world The human nation still has to face many terrible tests. Ryan, we must not let the empire fall. Karl Franz and his army are the hope of mankind. We must work together to fight against the threats of chaos and green skins. "
The fairy of the lake stood up, her beautiful figure swaying in the room, the goddess held the golden chalice in her hand, and the slurry in the chalice was rippling under the will of the goddess: "As the master of Charlemagne's city, Karl Franz Ci has undoubtedly proved his firm will and his legitimacy to the legal principles of the empire. As the emperor of the empire, he used the magic hammer 'Gael-Maraz' to defeat the enemy time and time again. He will be a man who understands An ally and a trustworthy object for the big picture."
"Under the chaos, no one can survive, and the green skins pass through the border, and all things wither." Ryan also said solemnly: "My lady, I understand what you mean. Before the final moment, we must preserve the power of mortals, and then weaken the God of Chaos' grip on the future."
"That's right." The fairy in the lake paused for a moment, and then said with some embarrassment: "Besides that, I need you to do me a favor."
…………
Early the next morning, in the Imperial Royal Hotel, Ryan and Teglis sat opposite each other. Milk, bread, fried eggs and ham were placed on the table, and the two were eating breakfast together.
"So, we need to steal a Charlemagne from the basement of the Church of Justice, which hides a lot of secrets, under the eyes of thousands of battle priests, more than a hundred demon hunters, and thousands of fanatics in the capital of the Human Empire. A treasure from the era of the Great Emperor, as the first fragment of Lilith’s crown?” Teclis remained expressionless, and he said calmly: “Lilith asked us to be a mage and a warrior to be a diplomat and a wandering By?"
"A fighter who doesn't want to be a rogue is not a good mage, Your Excellency Teclis." Ryan used a knife and fork to cut a piece of fat grilled pork chop. These foods were specially prepared for the royal family and provided by the emperor's private kitchen.
"This really shouldn't be our job. Neither you nor I are good at hiding. Lilith always does things like this." After Teclis repeatedly confirmed the plan of the fairy in the lake, he finally He complained in a muffled voice: "She should give this task to Shadow King Aris, if it's not possible, she will be more confident in handing it to Alaros than to us."
"But we are the only ones she can rely on." Ryan spread his hands.
The Fairy of the Lake has very little influence among the elves, and the same is true in the empire. She can only borrow the power of Teclis and Lion.
"...Let's think about what to do first." Teclis was silent for a while, and then said: "It's not difficult to avoid the perception of the gods, my magic can do it, but how to get through the huge The garrison and the fanatics who patrol day and night?"
"Let's first confirm whether what Lilith wants is really in the underground of the Justice Church, where, how to get it, and how much trouble there is, and then consider how to get it out." Ryan said in a low voice.
"Well, let's go to Guangming Academy today." Teclis also felt the difficulty of the problem. He knew that the only Lilith could rely on was himself and Ryan.
The two stood up one after another and walked outside.
Today Teclis will visit the Academy of Light, one of the Imperial Colleges of Wizardry, with Ryan, Veronica and Teresa.
Originally, the emperor Karl Franz should have been busy with affairs and participated in this visit flawlessly, but the emperor himself attached great importance to Teclis' visit to the Guangming Academy, and even followed Ryan and others to visit in person while he was busy.
The supreme light mage Vospasian-Kant and the head of the Guangming Academy, Odo, are already waiting. The light mages are all wearing white robes, their skin and hair are as pale as snow. The bodies of these mages are completely covered by the power of the light wind .
"Although it is known as the Royal Wizarding Academy of the Empire, the Royal Wizarding Academy is not 'one' big academy, but eight independent academies." Teclis leaned on Lilith's Staff of the Moon and walked towards the place where the Academy of Light was located. go.
Bright Academy has always been known as the "No. 1 Academy" because the first chief wizard of the royal family was the Supreme Bright Mage Wolan.
During the Great Crusade, Teclis managed to convince Ludwig the Savior of the necessity of the war, which led Ludwig to order all spellcasters in the empire to be summoned, and Volan enlisted and served as Teclis Rhys's apprentice participated in the Great Crusade, and Volan was already several decades old at this time. His magical talent made him a natural master of the wind of light. His control and carefulness of the wind of magic ensured that he avoided corruption and depraved.
After the end of the Great Holy War, Teclis appointed Wolan, who was nearly a hundred years old, as the first royal chief wizard and supreme wizard of light.
Veronica, who was wearing a wine-red bright velvet dress and Teresa, who was wearing a slanted black night red line check leather jacket and leather pants, followed behind Teclis, and the two witches listened very carefully. Teclis' explanation.
The Royal Wizarding College is divided into eight wizarding colleges, representing the eight main winds of magic. The Bright College is hidden in a "plane crack" opened by Teclis' great spell. This is a huge pyramid building. , the translucent outer wall is as pure as a diamond, and the whole building is flickering with the candlelight from thousands of candles, which sets off the solemnity of Guangming College.
And in the deepest part of Guangming Academy, behind the labyrinth of tunnels and countless traps, is the "Pyramid of Light", which seals the most precious treasures in the world, and also seals the most threatening chaos evil and chaos law. However, due to the fall and rebellion of the former Supreme Master of Light, the Pyramid of Light was damaged to a certain extent.
"It's really a great building. In the academy, I feel a strong affinity." Veronica, a witch from the light department and the flame department, smiled and said: "It's comfortable."
Teresa just shook her head. The sorceress is very uncomfortable with this environment full of bright winds, and she feels very uncomfortable.
Ryan followed a few wizards, the Supreme Master of Light Kant and the president of the Academy of Light, Odo, were reporting the situation to Teclis: "I'm very sorry, I'm really sorry, Lord Teclis, your seal made Egrim- Van Horstmann was ruined, and we salvaged most of the property as best we could, but let the traitor get away."
"Egrim?" Ryan asked suspiciously.
"Egrim, the former supreme mage of light, he was once the smartest, most gifted and most talented mage of light." Emperor Karl Franz explained to Ryan: "However, the excessive thirst for knowledge and power It made him try to contact the God of Darkness, and relying on the qualification of the supreme light mage to enter the Pyramid of Light, peeked at a forbidden book, and then he completely degenerated into a follower of Tzeentch."
"In the beginning, none of us discovered that Egrim had become a chaotic believer. He had been carefully hiding himself and secretly corrupting the entire Bright Academy. Until a coincidence, Kant discovered the depravity of his mentor Egrim. , and found that half of the students in the college had become followers of Chaos. At this time, Kant chose to ask the church for help. The archbishop of the Justice Church, "The Resolute" Vicmar, gathered more than a hundred demon hunters and hundreds of battle priests Entering the Academy of Light, completely defeated Egrim and his entourage, but still let that traitor escape." Carl Franz shook his head regretfully: "Egrim calls himself the 'Dark Lord' and established the Fallen Wizard Secret society."
"Another corrupt traitor."
A group of people walked into the deep and dark interior of the Pyramid of Light, and Teclis easily waved his staff to open the seal.
Walking through the long corridor, in the middle of a wooden table surrounded by a large area of burning candles, there is a book with a gray cover covered with some blue stains.
"Ergrim read this book at the beginning, and he was suddenly corrupted and depraved." Vospasian-Kant, the supreme light mage, said to Teclis: "After that, we strictly forbid others to read this book."
"...The Book of Chaos." Teclis lowered his head, staring at the book: "No wonder."
"This book contains forbidden knowledge and secrets, revealing the truth of the world." Teclis looked down at the book, he seemed to be thinking about something, and then he was about to reach out to flip through: "The contents of the Book of Chaos It changes every day, and I come to see what Egrim might have seen and why it was corrupted."
A hand reached out from the side and grabbed the wrist of the Supreme Master: "Let me come, I'm not afraid of this."
Teclis hesitated for a moment. He signaled everyone to back off. The High Mages chanted a spell, and a powerful magic shield enveloped everyone: "Be careful."
Ryan slowly opened the book. The text in the book is in High Gothic.
He read softly: "A bloody age, a dark age, you mediocre people are just playthings in the hands of the gods."
"In the barren land, a wave of green evil sweeps the four directions."
"In the darkness, the lord of the dead is planning his return."
"The center of the old world, Karl Franz, the emperor of the empire, must turn the tide and prove that he is the true successor of Charlemagne."
"The recovery of the dwarves is just a silhouette of the former glory."
"However, the fate of the world has long been preordained. The last and most respected God's Chosen champion will be sent to the mortal world. Archaon, the Eternal God's Chosen, has won five of the six Chaos Supreme Treasures. His next stop..."
Ryan was still waiting to read again, but the text on the book suddenly became blurred, and the letters gradually turned into mud filled with chaos and corruption. Ryan's fingers were attached to the mud, and then the fairy champion of the lake found dozens of characters in the book. A gray silk thread bound his hands firmly, and the terrible chaos corruption was trying to use this as a medium to enter his body!
"This is?!"
